Hard Drives, Still Lives

Just a heads-up, for those who can get to their DVRs this afternoon or will remember to do so in a few weeks. Last week, I lamented the difficulty of getting to see the films of Terence Davies; today, I’m delighted to report that his “Distant Voices, Still Lives,” from 1988—which hasn’t been released in the U.S. on DVD—is being broadcast four times on IFC TV: one opportunity already flew, this morning, but it will be on again today at 4:45 P.M. and Saturday, August 21st, at 10:35 A.M. and 5:05 P.M. (all times are Eastern).
